Preface. 



THE Order of the Founders and Patriots of America having 
greatly increased in numbers, the necessity of knowing 
who were their fellow-members was pressed upon the 
Associates of the Order, and at the annual meeting of the 
General Court, May 13, 1901, the subject of gratifying the desire 
for such information was considered, and a committee was 
appointed to take up the matter, with directions to report to 
the Council General. At the autumn meeting of the Council 
General in 1901 that committee made a report, and the Council 
General directed the committee to proceed and prepare the 
material for the Register — then, however, planned to be a 
modest pamphlet, with provision for binding copies for such 
Associates as would bear such expense each for himself. 

The data and information in possession of the Registrar 
General was most necessary to the work of the Committee, and 
to him the committee resorted for his aid and assistance, which 
was most cheerfully given and was most satisfactory; and the 
committee desire here to acknowledge the obligations to Asso- 
ciate Teunis Dimon Huntting, the Registrar General of the 
Order, resting upon every Associate to whom this book shall 
come, for his persistent, industrious, painstaking and cheerfully- 
performed work, in gathering, from the '.'application papers" 
and the records in his possession, the data and information which 
has enabled the committee to perform the work laid upon it. 

Such a book as this Register must of necessity become a book 
of reference to very many, a means of preserving family history 
to those who follow us, and also of gathering up and preserving 
a record of the personal public services of the Associates of the 
Order. 

Within the forty-one years past, and during the lifetime of 
most of the Associates, our country has passed through two wars 



preface. 

in which many have served. In view of all this the committee 
addressed to every Associate a circular letter, asking the same 
information from all, and to that end requesting answers to the 
same questions from each, to be returned to the Registrar 
General. Many who did answer it were very modest concerning 
their personal history. Some incidents of most honorable 
service, stated as to many Associates, were not communicated at 
all by them, and facts not stated by them have been gleaned 
from other sources. Wherever information given as to one is 
not given as to another it does not follow that nothing of like 
interest remained to be communicated as to those of whom like 
things are not said, but such things were not stated in the infor- 
mation returned. Many Associates, we regret, for reasons no doubt 
satisfactory to themselves, did not answer the circular letter at all. 
At the annual meeting of the General Court on May 13, 1902, 
the committee reported to the General Court a mass of manu- 
script to be used in the Register, and it was then instructed to go 
forward with the work, and by vote of the General Court was 
ordered to print the book for distribution, and an appropriation 
was made for the purpose liberal enough to satisfy every demand. 

The book is now laid before the General Court and the Asso- 
ciates of the Order. It will be found to contain mistakes, no doubt ; 
but only those persons who have had a hand in such work can 
appreciate the amount of labor bestowed upon it, or the inevita- 
ble liability to error. We beg that any Associate to whom a 
mistake or omission becomes apparent will be very lenient in 
judgment and in criticism, and pardon the committee for the 
unintended error, write to the Registrar General specifying 
every mistake and stating how it should be corrected, and 
supply to the Registrar General all omitted information as to 
himself or any other Associate. By so doing, the Registrar 
General will have on file the means of correcting errors and 
adding information in future Registers, which will no doubt 
follow. 

Although personal facts other than genealogical information 
have been asked and used, it will no doubt be noted that some 
information, as to the membership, and services, of some Asso- 

4 



preface. 



ciates in other societies and clubs, has not been used. If the 
book were a register of club men, or society men, it would no 
doubt be very much larger than it is. It has been deemed by 
the committee best to confine such personal information to the 
facts concerning Education, College and University degrees, and 
public services of the Associates. 

The Publication Committee desires to remind the Associates 
of the Order that equal justice should, for the sake of future 
history, be done to the stories of the personal services of every 
Associate. If an Associate is so modest as to desire not to give 
for himself an account of what he has done for his country, 
some other Associate ought to furnish it for him. We, there- 
fore, ask that every Associate who, in reading this book, shall 
discover that the public services, civil or military, of any other 
Associate are not here recorded, will prepare a statement of 
such services and forward it to the Registrar- General, for use 
in the preparation of the next Register. 

In editing the Roll of Associates, the Committee have found 
the names of the following Associates who served in the Civil 
War:

As the pages of the book shall be consulted, or read, a fact that 
cannot escape attention, is the prevalence in the genealogical 
lines of the Associates of Bible names, and of those easily recog- 
nized as peculiarly Puritan names, among the men, as Barnabas, 
Bartholomew. Job. Daniel, Elijah, Hezekiah, Ebenezer, Joshua, 
Japeth, Abijah, Elihu, Hopestill, Preserved, Jedediah, Israel, 
Bezaleel; also amongthe women as Magdalen, Tryphena, Tamar, 
Hannah, Tabitha, Hepsibah. Deborah, Mehitable, Eunice, Lois, 
Priscilla, Ruth, Prudence, Mercy. Wait, Submit, Grace. Silence. 
Plain, Hopestill, Thankful, Experience, Deliverance, Sophronia. 
Rhoda, Dorcas, Keziah, Penelope, Hepsibeth, Hilpah, and many 
others of the like, all of which cannot now be mentioned. 

Such facts cannot fail to tell the story of the kind of blood 
which flows in the veins of the Associates, and to assure that they 
came of a race of God-fearing. Bible-loving, religion-respecting, 
and virtue- valuing ancestors ; such as we shall, not only as of 
those days, but in all days, be glad we came from, the men and 
women who made sturdy characters and good habits, an ancestry 
of the kind to whom this great nation of ours owes more for its 
solid, law-abiding and law-honoring, good citizenship, than to 
any other of the emigrant peoples who followed to find homes 
in the good land our ancestors had subdued for them.

The Order of the Founders 
and Patriots of America 



THE motive leading to the formation of The Order of the 
Founders and Patriots of America, at a time when so many 
hereditary societies, born of the Centennial Era beginning in 
1876, were already in existence, was the desire to meet certain 
most desirable requirements which none of the existing organi- 
zations seemed to meet. There were Societies of lineal descend- 
ants of patriots of the American Revolution and of other sub- 
sequent wars, membership in which indicated no antecedent 
American lineage. On the other hand, there were societies of 
descendants of ante-revolutionary progenitors, membership in 
which did not indicate that the intermediate ancestors during 
the War for Independence were loyal to the American cause. 
There was nothing in the eligibility requirements of the latter 
Societies to exclude from membership persons whose ancestors 
in the same line were allied with the enemies of the Colonies 
during the great sacrificial crisis in which our republic was 
brought into being as an independent nation. In fact, entrance 
into such latter societies was open to, and into them actually 
entered, those whose ancestors in the revolutionary period 
actually fought against the Colonies, and against the patriots 
whose memory we delight to honor and who offered their lives 
and their all to found the nation and the liberties we enjoy and 
have inherited from them. 

It was therefore believed, and the belief has been justified by 
events, that there was room for an hereditary Order whose 
insignia should be a badge of double honor — honor of descent 
from those brave and hardy pioneers who subdued the primeval 
wilderness and first planted within the limits of the original 
colonies the civilization which now leads the world, and honor 



Ubc Qtbct ot tbe jfoun^ers an& patriots of america. 

of descent from those who, in patriotism and devotion and love 
of liberty, founded the first republic in the western hemisphere 
and the greatest republic among the nations of the earth. 

Moved by these feelings an informal conference of a few of 
the descendants of those founders and patriots was called and 
held at the Astor House in New York City on the 24th day 
of February, 1896, at which it was determined to form this Order. 

The terms of eligibility, as afterward framed and inserted in 
the Constitution, were agreed upon, in short that every member 
must be descended in the male line of father or mother, from 
an ancestor who settled in one of the thirteen original colonies 
within fifty years (half a century) from the settlement of James- 
town, Va., May 13, 1607 and through the same line only, through 
patriots in the revolutionary period but not of necessity through 
those who rendered military service. A second conference for 
the purpose agreed upon was held at the Hotel Endicott, in 
New York City, March 9th, 1896, at which time the name of 
the Order was agreed upon and steps taken toward its organi- 
zation and the work of preparing the necessary papers for 
incorporation, was assigned. 

A third conference was held at the office of Mr. Henry Hall 
in the Tribune Building, Printing House Square, in New York 
City, on the i6th day of March, 1896, at which there were pres- 
ent Messrs. John Quincy Adams, William Winton Goodrich, 
Edward Nelson Granville Greene, Henry Hall, Howard Marshall, 
Henry Lincoln Morris, Ralph Earl Prime, Howard Sumner 
Robbins and Charles Waterman Bentley Wilkinson. "It was 
then formally agreed by the nine gentlemen present to take 
measures to form a new Colonial and Patriotic society, and to 
that end to incorporate according to the laws of the State of 
New York, and that the name of the new society shall be 'The 
Order of the Founders and Patriots of America,' and that the 
New York Society of the Order shall be incorporated." There- 
upon and at that time the certificate of incorporation was signed 
and executed in duplicate by the nine gentlemen named and 
present, who thus became the Founders of the Order. Direc- 
tions were given for obtaining the approval of the certificate 

10 



Ube @r&er of tbe jfoun &erg an5 patriots of amerfca, 

by a Justice of the Supreme Court of the State of New York 
and the filing thereof in the proper public offices. The gentle- 
men then present agreed to meet again March 23, 1896, at the 
Hotel Endicott in New York City. 

The Certificate of Incorporation was, on the 1 7th day of March, 
1896, duly approved by Hon. Jackson O. Dykman, a Justice of 
the Supreme Court of the State of New York, and on the i8th 
day of March one of the duplicate certificates was duly filed in 
the office of the Secretary of State in Albany, N. Y., and the 
other duplicate certificate, was the same i8th day of March, 
1896, duly filed in the office of the Clerk of the County of New 
York in New York City and the New York Society thus became 
incorporated. 

Pursuant to appointment, five of the nine Founders met 
again in the evening of March 23d, 1896, at the Hotel Endicott. 
For the completion of the organization, the work was divided 
and assigned to different persons. The formation of the society 
having been made public, many applications for admission had 
been received by the different Founders, all of which were 
referred to a membership committee, for investigation, as were 
also the lines of descent of the Founders of the Order. 

Again, on the 6th day of April, 1896, a meeting of the Foun- 
ders was held at the Hotel Endicott. At this time there were 
also present some of those who had applied for membership 
and whose eligibility had been approved by the membership 
committee. A form of constitution and by-laws was reported 
and was discussed and after adding a provision for the eligi- 
bility of the sons of original members, the work was approved 
and it was determined to accord to all whose applications for 
membership had been approved, the privilege of participating 
in the adoption of the constitution and by-laws and such were 
then denominated Charter Members. 

On the evening of the 24th day of April, 1896, at the Hotel 
Normandie, in the City of New York, a meeting of the Charter 
Members was held. At that time they were seventy-eight in 
number. At that meeting the constitution and by-laws of the 
Order, which had already been approved by the Founders, was

presented and read in full, and with an amendment providing 
for dual membership was adopted, and the organization com- 
pleted by the election of the officers and councillors of the New 
York Society of the Order of the Founders and Patriots of America. 

The terms of the constitution provided for a Society of the 
Order in each State and for a General Court of the Order to be 
composed of The Founders of the Order, the Officers of the Gen- 
eral Court, with representatives of each of the State Societies, 
consisting of the first eight (since nine) of its officers, and it 
authorized the New York State Society of the Order, to act as 
the General Court until the General Court should be organized 
by the representatives of at least three State Societies and 
meanwhile to issue charters to such State Societies as it should 
organize. Each member was to be known as an Associate. 

On the 24th day of April, 1896, the Council of the New York 
Society of the Order, granted a charter to nine Associates 
to organize the New Jersey Society of the Order, and ap- 
pointed its first meeting to be held at the house of Asso- 
ciate William Armstrong Halsey in Newark, N. J., on the 28th 
day of April, 1896, at which time and place the New Jersey 
Society of the Order was organized. 

On the ist day of May, 1896, the Council of the New York 
society of the Order granted a charter to nine Associates 
to organize the Connecticut Society of the Order, and 
appointed its first meeting to be held at the house of Asso- 
ciate Charles Augustus Jewell, in Hartford, Conn., on the 9th 
day of May, 1896, at which time and place the Connecticut 
Society of the Order was organized. 

Three Societies of the Order having thus been organized, the 
Founders of the Order and the officers of those Societies, entitled 
to sit in the General Court of the Order, met in the historic 
Governor's Room, in the City Hall in the City of New York, on 
the 13th day of May, 1896, the 289th anniversary of the settle- 
ment of Jamestown, Va., and organized the General Court of 
the Order, and elected its General Officers and Councillors Gen- 
eral, and the General Court then became the Supreme Govern- 
ing body of the Order.

On the 28th day of December, 1896, the Council General 
granted a charter to eleven Associates (to which number four 
others were subsequently added) to organize the Pennsylvania 
Society of the Order and appointed its first meeting to be held 
in the city of Philadelphia, Pa., on the 14th day of January, 
1897, at which time and place the Pennsylvania Society of the 
Order was organized. 

On the 13th day of May, 1899, the Council General granted 
a charter to ten Associates to organize the Massachusetts 
Society of the Order, and appointed its first meeting to be held 
in the city of Boston, Mass., at such time and place as the Sec- 
retary General should fix. The Secretary General did fix such 
time and place and at such meeting in Boston, Mass, the Massa- 
chusetts Society of the Order was organized. All the offices of 
the Society, however, have not since been filled. 

The Order of the Founders and Patriots of America now 
consist of the General Court of the Order and four State Socie- 
ties of the Order and numbers in all 514 Associates. 

Its membership consists of citizens of the United States, 
who are descended in the paternal line of either father or mother, 
from an ancestor who settled within the limits, of what became 
the original thirteen colonies during the first half century, from 
the first settlement in America, at Jamestown, Va., May 13, 
1607, and whose intermediate ancestors in the same line were 
loyal to the cause of the American Colonies during the War for 
their Independence. Pursuant to an amendment, adopted May 
13, 1902, it also admits to membership the male descendants of 
Associates of the Order, thus making the members a new stock 
for the perpetuation of the Order.

PREAMBLE. 



Recognizing Almighty God as gtiiding our ancestors to this land, to 
establish, through their descendants, not a Colony, but an independent 
sovereign Christian nation, destined by Him to occupy a commanding 
place among the nations of the earth; and, to protect and defend liberty 
in all the Western Hemisphere; and, recognizing that the foundations of 
the nation were laid, in the perils and hardships of the first half century, 
by our ancestor settlers of that period, rather than in the years that fol- 
lowed; and, recognizing that, necessary to the end for which our ancestors 
came, was a patriot progeny, in the time of the Revolutionary struggle, 
out of which our country came to be independent, and our nation came 
into being — for ourselves, and those who may associate with us, we 
have formed an Association, founded on descent from such ancestry 
and their patriot descendants: 

Therefore, to that end, we adopt the following Constitution:
